As someone who can’t seem to post on any of the bad platforms mentioned but I find it seemingly freeing to post on my blog. I have the opposite issue, I want my blog to be read by those interested in the content and not by those who happen to be my friends. Because my writing is very different than what gets posted on Twitter/IG/Tiktok. And maybe because I find that my blog posts are sort of just personal journal entries over status updates with rich details like photos etc.
- J_Shelby_J 3y agoSame. And even professionally I'm not going to post everything on linkedin, so it can't be my "blog" either. And medium paywalls....so I ended up just rolling a quick blog on github pages using astro. Was pretty easy, and set it up as a repo so my partner can host her portfolio on github too -> https://github.com/ShelbyJenkins/easy-astro-blog-creator https://github.com/ShelbyJenkins/easy-astro-blog-creator and this is knowing very little about webdev. pretty nice until github tries to monetize pages
- adhamsalama 3y agoI think Medium paywalls only when you choose to monetize your content. I still think using something open source is better though.
